Arthur isn’t the worst coach but he is also far from the best. It just seems like the club is married to him.
At least show Bellamy some interest or any of the other obviously better coaches.

Buzz on bsb said, souths should go after Bennet for 2 years and burgess as his understudy to take over ala dolphins

By the time we realise ba has to go, we'll end up with Neville and then resign ba for 2 more years

I’d be happy with Holbrook. Bennett won’t come back to Sydney unless his partner is homesick.

I am leaning towards Holbrook it wasnt like he lost the players or dressing room so you could point to man-management abilities.

He was brutally axed as the Titans saw Hasler as a better option.

He is a good tactical coach especially in attack.

When i used to watch the Titans they would mix up there attack every week against certain opposition after identifying a weakness and look to exploit it.

The problem under Holbrook was more defense and concentration in games. They had a lot of teams come from behind and win.

Now seeing how Hasler who is a 2 x premiership coach and always had his team at least defensively strong. Even struggle with that mob up there especially in D. I am starting to lean towards more the titans are a just basketcase and might be unfixable with the current roster.

I think Holbrook would probably be a better coach anyway 2nd time around as he seems like a guy that would actually identify what he did wrong the 1st time and correct it at his 2nd appointment.

And you were wrong.

The team losing doesn’t ever mean you were right, about anything other than a prediction that we’d lose. And we all predicted that today, even me.

Looks pretty right at the moment.

Let me also say I have been right about our shitty recruitment as well as how our development has been over the years as well.

You are still on a duck egg my friend on getting calls right ..

I'll keep on banging on about it but it won't matter who our next coach is if we have the same duds as Head of Football and Head of recruitment.
if you have someone like Bennett/Belemy then it would be a few year plan as they would want to overhaul that process too
Otherwise you are looking for someone to get the best out of the existing squad on game day. At least the current squad has the core of a good side for at least this year and next

Well our squad isn't half bad that's what I think everyone is disappointed with after yesterdays loss..Apart from a winger that should never get picked again..

Good clubs dont do rebuilds.

They may slide down a touch but we should never be putting ourselves in a position again where we go through a 7-8 year rebuild between 2009-2016.

Which is what the tigers, bulldogs or dragons are going through.
